Been Easy

Talkin' to my old man on the front porch swing I ask him how he stole mama's heart tell me everything It takes a lot of patience and a little bit of prayer But don't give up son one day you'll get there Hold her hand when she gets scared When she's not ready I'm prepared To do the things she needs To feel the love from me I'll hold her close when she gets cold And hold her all night won't let go Show her what she means to me Loving her's been easy One day my boy pulled up in that 85 Chevrolet I said what's the matter son Why's your face looking that way He said you know that girl that I walked home just the other week Well today after school she kissed me on the cheek yeah Hold her hand when she gets scared When she's not ready I'm prepared To do the things she needs To feel the love from me I'll hold her close when she gets cold And hold her on I won't let go Show her what she means to me Loving her's been easy here comes my baby girl with the love of her life She's been telling me since grade school She can't wait to be a wife she told me Daddy he's always patient does his best to understand And the only time his hands come up is for another dance Just like you he's close to Jesus Does the best that he can And I thank God for you Daddy He used you to show me that I'm mad Hold her hand when she gets scared When she's not ready he's prepared To do the things she needs To feel the love from me He holds me close when I get cold Holds me at night and won't let go It's just like you told me it should be And loving him's been easy It's been easy Loving her's been easy
